In this paper we introduce and study some mathematical structures on top of transitive Lie algebroids in order to formulate gauge theories in terms of generalized connections and their curvature: metrics, Hodge star operator and integration…
We study $S^1$-bundles and $S^1$-gerbes over differentiable stacks in terms of Lie groupoids, and construct Chern classes and Dixmier-Douady classes in terms of analogues of connections and curvature.
Just like Atiyah Lie algebroids encode the infinitesimal symmetries of principal bundles, exact Courant algebroids are believed to encode the infinitesimal symmetries of $S^1$-gerbes. At the same time, transitive Courant algebroids may be…
In this work we study discrete analogues of an exact sequence of vector bundles introduced by M. Atiyah in 1957, associated to any smooth principal $G$-bundle $\pi:Q\rightarrow Q/G$. In the original setting, the splittings of the exact…
We construct spaces of coinvariants at principally polarized abelian varieties with respect to the action of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra. We show how these spaces globalize to twisted $\mathcal{D}$-modules on moduli of principally…
We introduce the notion of Atiyah class of a generalized holomorphic vector bundle, which captures the obstruction to the existence of generalized holomorphic connections on the bundle. As in the classical holomorphic case, this Atiyah…
In the main part of this paper a connection is just a fiber projection onto a (not necessarily integrable) distribution or sub vector bundle of the tangent bundle. Here curvature is computed via the Froelicher-Nijenhuis bracket, and it is…
We show that the Atiyah-Hirzebruch K-theory of spaces admits a canonical generalization for stratified spaces. For this we study algebraic constructions on stratified vector bundles. In particular the tangent bundle of a stratified manifold…
We introduce the notions of Atiyah class and Todd class of a differential graded vector bundle with respect to a differential graded Lie algebroid. We prove that the space of vector fields on a dg-manifold with homological vector field $Q$…
To a closed wide Lie subgroupoid $\mathbf{A}$ of a Lie groupoid $\mathbf{L}$, i.e. a Lie groupoid pair, we associate an Atiyah class which we interpret as the obstruction to the existence of $\mathbf{L}$-invariant fibrewise affine…
Over a smooth and proper complex scheme, the differential Galois group of an integrable connection may be obtained as the closure of the transcendental monodromy representation. In this paper, we employ a completely algebraic variation of…
This work extends previous developments carried out by some of the authors on Ehresmann connections on Atiyah Lie algebroids. In this paper, we study Cartan connections in a framework relying on two Atiyah Lie algebroids based on a…
A generalized notion of a Lie algebroid is presented. Using this, the Lie algebroid generalized tangent bundle is obtained. A new point of view over (linear) connections theory on a fiber bundle is presented. These connections are…
We develop the theory of d-holomorphic connections on d-holomorphic vector bundles over a Klein surface by constructing the analogous Atiyah exact sequence for d-holomorphic bundles. We also give a criterion for the existence of…
The Tulczyjew triple on a principal bundle with connection is constructed in a convenient trivialisation. A reduction by the structure group is performed leading to the triple on the trivialised Atiyah algebroid and a presentation of this…
A theory of principal bundles possessing quantum structure groups and classical base manifolds is presented. Structural analysis of such quantum principal bundles is performed. A differential calculus is constructed, combining differential…
Motivated from target space covariant formulations of topological sigma models and from a graded-geometric approach to higher gauge theory, we study connections on Lie and Courant algebroids and on their description as differential graded…
We prove a Lie 2-group torsor version of the well-known one-one correspondence between fibered categories and pseudofunctors. Consequently, we obtain a weak version of the principal Lie group bundle over a Lie groupoid. The correspondence…
We present a novel generalisation of principal bundles -- principaloid bundles: These are fibre bundles $\pi:P\to B$ where the typical fibre is the arrow manifold $G$ of a Lie groupoid $G\rightrightarrows M$ and the structure group is…
We understand quantum principal bundle as faithfully flat Hopf--Galois extensions, with a structure Hopf algebra coacting on a total space algebra and with base algebra given by the coinvariant elements. To endow such bundles with a…
